MX6SWT-A1-0000-000DA5 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The MX6SWT-A1-0000-000DA5 is an XLamp® MX-6S warm white LED (3750K) designed for surface mount applications requiring high color rendering and directional light output. This part operates at 20V forward voltage with a 60mA test current, delivering 111lm at 25°C with 93 lm/W efficiency and an 80 CRI rating.

The MX6SWT-A1-0000-000DA5 is classified as obsolete. Identifying equivalent substitute parts is necessary for design continuity, procurement planning, and system redesign when original inventory becomes unavailable.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the MX6SWT-A1-0000-000DA5 is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Color and CCT Match: Warm white at 3750K (required for color consistency)
• Mechanical Compatibility: 2-SMD, Gull Wing package; 5.00mm × 5.00mm footprint; 1.48mm maximum seated height
• Electrical Operating Range: Forward voltage, test current, and maximum current ratings must be compatible with circuit design
• Optical Performance: Viewing angle (120°) and luminous flux characteristics
• Thermal and Environmental Ratings: Thermal resistance, MSL classification, and compliance certifications

The MX6AWT-A1-0000-000BA5 qualifies as a substitute based on matching color temperature, package footprint, viewing angle, thermal resistance, and MSL rating. However, significant differences exist in forward voltage (3.3V vs. 20V), test current (300mA vs. 60mA), and luminous flux output (97lm vs. 111lm), requiring circuit redesign for direct substitution.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The MX6AWT-A1-0000-000BA5 is the documented substitute for the obsolete MX6SWT-A1-0000-000DA5. Both parts are manufactured by CreeLED, Inc., share identical color temperature (3750K), CRI (80), viewing angle (120°), package footprint (5.00mm × 5.00mm), and thermal characteristics (5°C/W).

The MX6AWT-A1-0000-000BA5 carries Active product status and RoHS compliance certification, providing long-term availability and regulatory alignment. The substitute operates at significantly lower forward voltage (3.3V vs. 20V) and higher test current (300mA vs. 60mA), requiring complete power supply and current-limiting circuit redesign. Luminous flux output is slightly lower (97lm vs. 111lm), representing a 12.6% reduction in light output.

Selection of the MX6AWT-A1-0000-000BA5 is appropriate for new designs or redesigns where circuit topology can accommodate the lower voltage and higher current requirements. For applications requiring minimal design modification, alternative warm white 3750K LEDs with 20V forward voltage specifications from other manufacturers should be evaluated.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the MX6AWT-A1-0000-000BA5 be used as a direct drop-in replacement for the MX6SWT-A1-0000-000DA5?

A: No. While both parts share the same package footprint (5.00mm × 5.00mm), viewing angle (120°), and color temperature (3750K), the forward voltage differs significantly (3.3V vs. 20V). Direct substitution without circuit redesign will result in incorrect LED operation or failure. Power supply and current-limiting circuitry must be redesigned to accommodate the lower voltage and higher current requirements of the MX6AWT-A1-0000-000BA5.

Q: What are the key compatibility criteria for substituting the MX6SWT-A1-0000-000DA5?

A: Substitute parts must match the following parameters: warm white color at 3750K CCT, 2-SMD Gull Wing package with 5.00mm × 5.00mm footprint, 1.48mm maximum seated height, 120° viewing angle, 5°C/W thermal resistance, and 2A MSL rating. Forward voltage, test current, and luminous flux may vary depending on circuit design requirements.

Q: Why is the MX6SWT-A1-0000-000DA5 classified as obsolete?

A: The MX6SWT-A1-0000-000DA5 belongs to the XLamp® MX-6S series, which has been superseded by the XLamp® MX-6 series (represented by the MX6AWT-A1-0000-000BA5). CreeLED, Inc. has transitioned product lines to newer generations with improved performance characteristics and active manufacturing status.

Q: What is the difference between the 2-SMD Gull Wing and 2-SMD Gull Wing Exposed Pad packages?

A: Both packages share identical external dimensions (5.00mm × 5.00mm, 1.48mm height) and footprint compatibility. The Exposed Pad variant (MX6AWT-A1-0000-000BA5) includes an additional thermal pad on the package underside, improving heat dissipation. PCB layout must accommodate the exposed pad for optimal thermal performance.

Q: Is the MX6AWT-A1-0000-000BA5 RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. The MX6AWT-A1-0000-000BA5 is RoHS compliant. RoHS compliance status for the obsolete MX6SWT-A1-0000-000DA5 is not specified in available documentation.
